Answer: Abdul traveled 130 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Using the formula  to calculate how far Abdul traveled

Distance = speed x time.

Step 2---- Solving

In heavy traffic

Distance covered = speed x time = 30miles /hour x 1 hour = 30 miles

In light traffic

Distance covered = speed x time = 50miles/ hour x 2 hour = 100 miles

Total distance covered = Distance covered in heavy traffic + distance covered in light traffic = 100+ 30 = 130miles
